At just 12 years old, Jordan Spieth shocked coach Cameron McCormick with an audacious goal: winning the Masters. Though young, Spieth displayed rare clarity and ambition—traits that would later define his rapid rise through the golf world.
Spieth’s journey began with early struggles, narrowly missing PGA Q-School advancement. Yet, his relentless drive and talent, even at a young age, proved undeniable. Shooting 63 to win a junior event by 18 strokes signaled something special.
McCormick, coaching since 1998, saw greatness develop firsthand. Their partnership matured into one of golf’s most respected. Spieth’s 2015 Masters win confirmed that bold childhood dream, and five top-five finishes at Augusta cemented his legacy.
Today, Spieth’s focus is shifting. As a father of two, soon three, life beyond golf is gaining importance. Though he missed the cut at the 2025 Masters, Spieth finds fulfillment in both family and fairways.
